I keep coming across The Odyssey, and every time I’m tempted to buy it, I remember I already have a stack of unread books waiting for me! But my curiosity is getting the better of me. I feel a bit left out not being able to join these conversations or have an opinion on it yet.

Need to get back to reading the odyssey. English is not my first language so the english translation has been a bit of a struggle to get through 😫

My fav is Penelope’s intelligence: while Odysseus gets most of the attention, she is often just as clever. Her strategy of delaying the suitors by weaving and unweaving a shroud demonstrates patience, wit, and resilience 🫰🏻

I love when Eumaeus the loyal slave accepts Odysseus when he is disguised as a beggar and still shows him unconditional kindness, without even knowing his master has finally come home. I equally love the moment Eumaeus realises Odysseus has finally returned and he bursts into tears

The other day I was thinking where the saying "a dog is a man's best friend" came from and all I could think of was Argos and Odysseus. Anyway, it was King Frederick II of Prussia referring to his Italian greyhound

Good choice!! Personally I love the Book of the Dead where he tries in vain to embrace his mother’s spirit, and also meets a series of poor women of mythology- they don’t usually get much of a voice!

Yes indeed, such a heartbreaking moment...💔
As a Greek, especially having read it in both Modern and Ancient Greek...the reunion between Odysseus and Telemachus is my favorite part of the Odyssey.
